Left on DVD Too long ? sad mistake ?

dvd player-recorder[ a panasonic]

My Panasonic DVD Recorder is set to shut off after 6 hours unattended. In the set up menu different choices of shut off time are given.
Check your owners manual for trouble shooting....

Are you sure it didn't get zapped by lightning from your CATV?

Yes I am sure not much lightning around here
thanks .

Hi Alex,
You might be interested in my recent thread entitled;
"Need quality DVD-RAM recorder with ATSC tuner"
I telephoned Panasonic at 800-561-5505 and they were very helpful, albeit it took them a while to actually pick up the phone. I suggest that you unplug your DVD player for 24 hours and hope for the best. There may also be a way to do a "reset" by pushing two buttons at once. This should be somewhere in your owner's manual. Good luck!
(Now, I wish someone would respond to my thread. LOL!)

I second the 'reset' suggestion. there's gotta be a simple way to do it. check the manual.

I just got off the phone with the panasonic teck and trouble shooter . we tried unplugging it and resetting by pressing ch-up & down at the same time for 10 sec then, stop button & ch - up 10 sec . press and hold power button , It shuts off it shuts on it shows the correct time and it all ends in " PLEASE WAIT '' . and that is all wont's to do .
What am I not doing write ? the unit is make in march 04 but is like new I used it 6 times .
